Whitening Teeth! Do I need it?

March 19th,

Maybe you’ve always wanted a beautiful white smile. Or your teeth have yellowed over time. Or you’re not happy with the staining that results from drinking coffee, tea or cola. Whatever your reason for wanting whiter teeth, you’re not alone. Teeth Whitening is just what you need.

Just like we all have different hair and skin color, people also have different tooth color. Some teeth are more yellow than others, while others yellow with aging. Your natural tooth color can also be affected by many factors.

Surface stains and internal discoloration can be caused by:

The natural aging process

Using tobacco (smoked or chewed), drinking coffee, tea, colas or red wine, and eating pigmented foods such as cherries and blueberries

Accumulation of plaque and tartar deposits

Ingesting too much fluoride (more than 2 parts fluoride per million

parts water) when teeth are forming, which gives teeth a “mottled” look

Treatment with the antibiotic tetracycline during childhood

Trauma to the teeth that may cause a brown, gray or black color

There are many reasons for teeth whitening, including:

The boost to your confidence and self-esteem that comes from a great smile

A younger appearance

A special event such as a wedding, job interview or class reunion

To make a positive first impression on others

To simply reverse years of everyday staining and yellowing

Before beginning any teeth whitening procedure, be sure to consult with your dentist. Only he or she can evaluate whether you’re a suitable candidate for a particular treatment.

This application is sensitive and needs to be done perfectly by an experienced dentist. Failing in teeth whitening in its properest way may have some negative effects on your teeth. Keep your dentist informed about the toothpaste or any other whitening material you use.
